Then he encountered Akira on the bridge, but that was so confusing I have no idea what actually happened since all we know is that she passed out. And, recently, he's been putting vials of science juice into his staff and planting it into the ground, with demons seemingly reviving, except when they don't and the scene just ends with no idea of what the result was.
I'm getting a little frustrated since he's been showing up for the past 8 or so episodes now, and there's just far too many questions concerning him at the moment. All we know is that he's apparently high up on the rankings, since other demons bow in his presence, but beyond that...Nothing.

No, I'm not looking for the show to just remove the cloak and tell me everything, but his constant machinations and "Experiments" with no rhyme or reason behind the scenes is just getting weary.

I'll tell you right now: you're never going to get a satisfying answer to the cloaked figure and the ones who are sending them out. You will see some more development on that front soon, since I know the Man and Woman will be appearing soon. The staff change happened before they could be fully explained, though, and the replacement staff never gave a concrete explanation for them either (in fact, what you do get just frustratingly complicates things).

The most you'll ever really get is that there are two people who look a lot like the Douji and Hime and they're experimenting on making the Makamou stronger. Their ultimate goal is never revealed.
